If Tom Brady does indeed retire as is expected, would he work something out to retire a Patriot?
After all, New England is the place he spent 20 of his 22 NFL seasons.
Appearing on The Greg Hill Show Monday morning, ESPN's Seth Wickersham gave his thoughts.
“I think that’s strong," he said when asked about it being a possibility. "I don’t know how exactly it would work out, if Tom would sign a one-day contract and officially retire with the Patriots. Or figure out a way to do it after the press conference, or whatever [he] ends up doing. I think there [was] some indications of that from Robert Kraft after they played in early October that some of the issues that were going between Brady and the Patriots had been resolved to an extent and the idea of him coming back to New England for a day and retiring in those colors would be something that’s on the table. That said, I don't know.
“Brady is obviously very proud of what he did in Tampa. I think he’s proud of what he did in New England, but what they did in Tampa Bay, I think he’s as proud of that as he is anything that he’s accomplished in his career.”
Listen to Wickersham's comments in full, which begin around the 6:00 mark.
